Mondays' Music that Inspires me

Amazing Grace has always been an inspirational song to me, and I fell in love with the Bag Pipes playing this when this version was used briefly at the end of STAR TREK II The Wrath of Khan.  This is the full version with bag pipes and it is truly an amazing rendition.

wHEN i WAS A MEMBER OF THE cHOIR AT gOOD sHEPHEARD cATHOLIC cHURCH, WE USED TO SING THIS SONG QUITE A BIT, IT BECAME A FAVORITE.  hERE IS mICHAEL cRAWFORD, BETTER KNOWN AS THE pHANTOM OF THE oPERA, SINGING THIS GREAT PIECE.  Sorry for the typos, this is what happens when you have a cat playing with you and you are typing.

This last song is dedicated to my Father Ralph Edward Richards, whom was a musician and arranger.  When I was 9 years old, he wrote an arangement of this song.  Every time I hear this song, I am reminded of my father and encouraged to strive, to seek to find and not to yield.  Borrowing from a poet there that last reference.

So there you have it, the songs that inspire and encourage me.

Mondays' Music Moves Me. Some of my favorites

This has always been a favorite song of mine, and I just found this version, it s different but has the spirit of the original song made famous by Kenny Rogers.

This next piece of music, was the introduction to one of my favorite television shows, which thanks to Me-TV I have had the pleasure of finding all over again as an adult.  The theme was from Family Affair, with Brian Keith and Sebastian Cabot.

This song are artist are new to me, but he is becoming a favorite.  Bruno Mars and Just the way you are.

Closing off with one of my favorite songs and groups for a long time

So there you have it, four of my favorite pieces of music, very diverse just like me,  Hope you all enjoyed.  Til next time
